36 Dazed and Confused
Robert Bartholomew and Bob Rickard have just published their survey of reports of mass hysteria in schoolchildren. Here, they present a general summary of its scope and a glimpse of two of many sub-topics: sudden outbreaks in war zones and grisi siknis in Nicaragua.
Whatever happened to the Human Fly?
He jumped 27 buses riding a rocket-powered motorcycle, strapped himself to a DC-8 flying over the Mojave Desert, starred in his very own comic book... and then disappeared. Tea Krulos goes in search of "the wildest superhero ever".
